Would be good if there was a microwave in the room. The shutters alone don't make the room dark enough to sleep in. We had to put a black blanket up to keep the lights from the car park out of pur room to sleep.

Dusty blinds and light fittings. Shower gel bottle was empty. Suggest blockout blinds due to hotel carpark lights on all night. Convenient location, great food in bistro.

It was comfortable and convenient. Wondered about whoever did the room cleaning before we arrived as there was a black camisole left on the floor in the bedroom which should have been obvious to anyone vacuuming.
